The Leslie had some problems half way through the show. So I plugged directly into the Fender Hot Rod Deville. Playing with no Leslie Speaker means you can't just hold long notes or chords and get that lush pleasant sweeping sound. Instead you need to utilise the volume pedal, the drawbars and wrist wobbling to inject some movement and expression into the sound. Especially if you like using the higher drawbars. In small bursts or specific songs or I absolutely the sound of a Hammond direct into a Amplifier. Or even a mix of both can be fantastic!!
